Spring Banquet

Started in 1992, ZION Development's annual Spring Banquet has become a tradition in Rockford. Featuring the outstanding food and service that Cliffbreakers Riverside Resort is known for, ZION's Spring Banquet has set the standard for all other fundraising banquets in Rockford. Now approaching our 19th year, this is the place to meet our governmental, religious, and community leaders year after year. Our guest speakers have traveled from around the country to take part in our event. Many are names that are well known in their field, but who had never had the opportunity to visit Rockford until their time with us. Their messages, however, continue to challenge our entire community to do better and to be better.

In 2010, our Spring Banquet will be held on Tuesday, April 20th. This year's theme is "Justice & Mercy". We will also honor our second recipient of the Chester W. Anderson Civic Hero Award. Our Emcee for the evening will be "Jeannie Hayes, WREX News Anchor ". Steve Johnson and the Heartland Praise Band will be performing. Silent Auction and Reception: 5:30, Dinner and Program: 7:00 p.m. Cost is $50 per person. For reservatons, please return your Reply card by April 13, 2010. Questions? Call 815.964.8280, ext. 10.
